Just seen a boy of the new version. It's way to tame. The headmaster is not scary enough!

Oh the original actor totally nailed it!

Every time I've seen him in anything since, I go straight back to Dinah and the quiz. Grin

I must buy the book for my lot.

Outing, but I knew a London state school headmaster who was the absolute embodiment of the Demon Headmaster from the TV show!

I think Blipi is the YT generation's demon headmaster Confused

I loved that show, it was actually frightening.

Haha, I caught some today and thought the same. Jack Straw was so scary in it!

^ I hope you're joking! Can't tell on here sometimes.

Watching it on iPlayer and feeling all nostalgic for huge computers, no smart phones and scoop TVs on trolleys!

I was the DHM in the school play. It was a great part. Until some little fucker tipped ACTUAL PEPPER over me/in my eyes in the scene where they "pepper" the DHM to break his concentration!
